I have it for about 1 month now, for S70. It works betten than I suspected. You can quick disconnect it from the camera, take a shot with wide angle for example, then just click it back onto the top of the camera. Pictures are sharp, you can even use 3 steps of the zoom (from telephoto to wide), before you can see the adapter with the lens. I guess that would be like 210 - 170 maybe. Well, it's ok for the price, if you need it and don't mind a little "breakable" construction. Adapter is plastic. Converter is aluminium. Focus in low light is even more terrible than without it of course, since the lens of S70 are quite slow at telephoto. I can send you some sample photos if you want.
